JAG(UK) exists mainly through the commitment of each individual highway authority allowing key personnel to spend a small amount of time attending meetings and contributing their expertise to its vital work. JAG(UK) has seconded the services of a full time manager to coordinate all group activities and ensure a consistent message is delivered across the UK. To support the essential service that JAG(UK) provides, which includes the maintenance and development of the resources on this website, authority membership requires a contribution of £450/annum; this could be accommodated by income generated through legislation that JAG(UK) has helped to establish. Each Street or Road Authority will receive a request for contribution and by paying the contribution you will automatically become a full member. More than one person within a member authority may join the site.
